Four residents were arrested Wednesday after police found several drugs and weapons in a Trenton home.
TRENTON -- Four Trenton residents are facing drug and weapon charges after the Mercer County Narcotics Task Force concluded a two-month investigation on Wednesday by raiding an East Ward home.
Police stopped the investigation's target, Antoine Green, 41, in his Buick LaCrosse as he was driving in the area of Hampton and Walnut avenues, Mercer County Prosecutor's Office Lt. James Francis said in a statement.
Detectives detained Green and took him and his car to a house on the 400 block of Garfield Avenue, Francis said.
There, the Mercer County Narcotics Task Force found Christopher Wallace, 51, and his two daughters Danielle Wallace, 26; and Erin Wallace, 18, Francis said. They were detained there.
The task force then searched Green's bedroom and found one gram of cocaine, a small amount of marijuana, three decks of heroin marked "War," a digital scale and a plastic "Glock" gun case with two empty magazines.
Francis said investigators also found a box of "Federal" .40-caliber ammunition containing 25 rounds. In a third-floor bedroom, they found $1,391 cash, Francis said.
Officers further found a .380-caliber semi-automatic handgun and a fully loaded Smith and Wesson .45-caliber semi-automatic handgun along with six grams of cocaine and a digital scale in a shed behind the house.
Officers found $917 on Green, one brick of heroin in his car along with four grams of cocaine and $138, Francis said.
Green is charged with possession of a handgun during a drug scheme, three counts of distribution of drugs, four counts of intent to distribute within 500 feet of a park and another four counts for intent to distribute within 1000 feet of a school, and related charges.
Wallace and his daughters were each charged with possession of a handgun during drug scheme, intent to distribute within 500 feet of a park and within 1000 feet of a school, distribution of drugs and possession of drug paraphernalia.
